Medieval Life Designed

Authentic and believable, yet quick and efficient
This collection is an incredible high-quality time-saver that you'll never want to miss again. Creating rich and vivid medieval background sound atmos like a market place or an encampment can be really time consuming as you have to find and include numerous different sound sources and place them within your stereo or surround environment. What if you could just drag and drop completely pre-designed medieval background ambiences right into your project?

Highly versatile, production ready environments
This is where MEDIEVAL LIFE DESIGNED starts to save you precious time. You'll get 50+ ready-to-use, completely pre-designed medieval places like campsites, construction sites, farmyards, courtyards and market places. All of them in different sizes, multiple variations and long enough to loop them without sounding repetitive. What, you have a surround environment? We got you covered. All sounds come in stereo and 5.0 surround.

Overwhelming inspiration
The Middle Ages is one of these eras that can give our imagination wings like no other. With this collection you can achieve this. Just drag and drop the MEDIEVAL LIFE - DESIGNED sounds in your project and let everybody feel the vivid atmosphere of the dark age.

What we recorded
Most of the sounds were recorded in authentic medieval environments in Germany. We went out to visit medieval heritage sites like ruins and castles. For the market place recordings we went to farmers markets around the cathedral in Mainz, Germany that was built around 975 A.D. A perfect place to capture the spirit of medieval market places.

On our trip we recorded the hard life of people living in this era. We recorded medieval farm sounds like animals, mechanics of old tools, hurly-burly on marketplaces, blacksmiths hammering metal and working with wood, church bells, voices and a lot more.

What's so special about this library?
Designing the sound for a scene which is set in the medieval times can become a very long-lasting process. Due to the lack of smartphones, TV or even a well-written book, the people back then didn't sit in their houses the whole day long making no noise at all. Instead they went out on the streets, to the market, they camped, they worked, they drank, the chattered, they yelled, they farmed, they were very noisy or at least busy in a very diverse way. We sound designers should keep that in mind when designing a convincing medieval scene that covers that multi-facetted background ambience.Inspire your audience with the unmistakable sound of the life in the Middle Ages.
